Description Jean-François Wauthy 2006-03-04 02:32:56 UTC
i was looking for the meaning of the dlloader use flag in the ebuild for nvidia-glx and i found it this :
 if use dlloader; then
                [[ -f ${drvdir}/nvidia_drv.so ]] && \
                        doexe ${drvdir}/nvidia_drv.so
        else
                [[ -f ${drvdir}/nvidia_drv.o ]] && \
                        doexe ${drvdir}/nvidia_drv.o
        fi

so i wonder what's the point of having a dlloader use flag if you do the same operation when it's activated or not
